Is a University degree still worth it with AI taking over jobs?

It depends on your definition of “worth it”. It varies with everyone as we all have a unique set of values and priorities in life. If you value a structured learning environment, a community of committed learners, and the ability to develop human-centric skills, then I would say a University education is worth it. You’ll be able to develop greater critical thinking, emotional intelligence, adaptability, resilience, collaborative skills and even leadership that comes with consistent exposure to different personalities in an intellectually rigorous environment. These skills will serve you well in the age of AI.

Key Framework / Action Steps:

1. The AI Shift: AI automates routine and low cognitive load tasks; human value moves to discernment, judgement, ethical concerns and management.
2. What Employers Want: Skills like sense-making, systems thinking, experimentation, agile project management and the ability to work cohesively and harmoniously (Communication skills, emotional intelligence and self-leadership) with a wide variety of personality types. 
3. How to Maximize Your Degree: Use your time in university to experiment with cross-disciplinary majors to aid your ability to grasp the bigger picture and how things are linked and connected.
